what is taekwondo?
Taekwondo is a modern martial art, similar to Karate, but characterized by its fast, high and spinning kicks. There are multiple interpretations of the name Taekwondo but it is most often translated as ‘the way of hand and foot’.
Taekwondo has four disciplines:
- Forms
- Sparring
- Self-Defense
- Breaking
It is the combination of these four disciplines that make the art of Taekwondo. By advancing through each belt rank, Taekwondo aims to develop an appreciation for Taekwondo as a sport and art, achieve physical fitness, improve mental discipline, learn self-defense skills and develop a sense of responsibility for one’s self and others.
You will notice:
In this class we will practice kicks, punches, blocks, how to fall properly, sparring (controlled fighting with pads on) and much more. Students will develop self-confidence and a great sense of accomplishment by ranking through each belt level and testing their skill progression.
